Disagree.....two things will happen, either one or both.....more likely, they'll get stale..due to overexposure....look what ABS did to "who wants to be a millionaire" they killed it....also, something really bad will happen, like someone will do a Richard Speck/Charles Manson bit while one of these shows is being filmed..

One half of that has already happened on the 'Jenny Jones' show where a guest killed another guest after being revelealed as a Gay Crush.

Doing the same show every single day will kill it, but a genre really can't get over exposed. Just how many sitcoms have there been? Cop shows? Worst case scenario is a genre can get too little variation then it goes away for a while until somebody figures out something new (like how cop shows went away after Miami Vice and came back with Nash Bridges).

If something ugly happens while a show is filming we'll never hear about it, that show will have never happened (as far as TV land is concerned). I wouldn't be suprised if something ugly hasn't already happened.
